I've read the Hitchens' piece before. Hitchens falls apart at the end by arguing that the war in Iraq was good because we should be about the business of disposing of "evil dictators" around the world. OK, but that's not the reason we went to iraq originally, is it? When you change the justification after the fact, you throw your credibility out the window. And as to the facts Hitchens' proves wrong, again, the only material ones are the Taliban pipeline and the Carlyle group stuff. I agree - Moore overreached there.
Perhaps I should qualify my remark - what "material" facts are untrue in F9/11?
